Like Neville said they should start by cancelling this weekend's cup final. Everyone's going to be united against the 6 in these coming weeks, I just wish supporter's were allowed in to really vent their anger.

Simon Jordan sort made a similar point this morning. Sky would massively reduce any new negotiation on TV fees which would ultimately drive down wages ect. A sort of reset. There's so many points of discussion and it's only day 1 of the announcement.

We're 14/1 to go down so basically lower than a 1 according to bookies.

Wenger on talksport at 10:30 if anyone's interested.

Thought Ally Mccoist did well to contain himself with the arrogant liverpool supporter who's just been on talksport.

Yes I heard presenter quote rule L7 , I think she said, but was only half listening.

Would hope each of the "big six" fans will refuse to attend these new league matches thus totally reducing them as a spectacle.

The initial appetite for this appears zero (from supporters) let's hope it stays that way. I'm a bit wary that once the shock of this has waned the fans of these clubs may be sold the dream. The whole thing has got me more riled than it should.

OK, point taken although he sounded steadfast against this current initiative.

Difficult one, first instinct is to say find another club but I know I couldn't.

Well said Gary Neville

At least its interesting being so invested in other matches.

9 or 11 points ahead with 7 games to play is a massive advantage. Even over a 38 game season you'd be massive favourites, over this mini league scenario it would be absolutely incredible for us to fail.

Badly swollen ankle I've just read on. Com

Hope he's fit for the remainder of the season. Not because we need him but because I enjoy watching him play.

Lovely day today, play offs is still a massive embarrassment for them even if they do manage promotion. Only an automatic place on the first season down would be sufficient if we were ever bad enough to drop so far down the pyramid. These are just so bang average for the league.

Wow, who'd have thought it. Best midfielder making something happen.

Definitely another in it on the break, just need composure.

Howay man

Those things usually happen to us.

Ridiculous from Shelvey.

Its frustrating knowing our best midfield option is on the bench.

Seems really quiet on here for a matchday.

Obviously it's all guesswork but I'm thinking a draw out of this difficult run may be enough but we would absolutely have to beat Sheffield Utd. At least I feel the fight is there within the squad and I enjoy wanting us to win. Ashley and Bruce staying negates any hope but I'll deal with that once I know what impact any arbitration/takeover has dealt on us.

Had read of the match thread. Still hold a superiority stance despite the years they've spent in the wilderness. This will, hopefully, break any remaining spirit.
